Atom Drop Deck Longboard - 39 Inch

This a fantastic longboard, however the grip tape wears off really soon. Use it almost daily, and am lovin it to death though.

Turns are easier also means you turn faster. But the balance is perfect for me with it lower to the ground with the dip. I love it

great board especially for the price! love it. good trucks. i put WD 40 in trucks and bearings and its smoother and no squiks like a pro board. bearings not the best of the best. but pretty good. easy to control. good for corners. great for beginners.

The truck is great. Bearings are good for beginner cause the board wont roll super fast on a moderate slope. The turning joints needs more lubrication. Hand grip came off on arrival. Came off more after two days riding. Saw some reviews complaining about the grip and that was like 2 years ago. Turns out the quality did improve at all.

The board and trucks are nice and responsive. However, its a bit stiff for my taste.

I fell

First, Im 38 years old and needed something to keep up with my 12 year old. That said, I wasnt sure exactly what to get. Take my word for it, this is absolutely where to start. I sampled many boards at Tillys and the drop deck is where its at. For anyone planning to cruise, this thing is so easy to kick from because of the low deck height. Further, theres just enough flex (Im 62 & 178 lbs) that the ride is fantastic. I mostly ride on asphalt, but itll do well on concrete as well. Additionally, the wheels and bearings provide an incredibly smooth roll. One note, as others have stated, you should slightly loosen the wheel nuts, as theyre a tad too tight from the factory. After a quick adjustment, my board was sailing! My daughter has a Goldcoast pintail with Super Reds and it rolls like a brick compared to the Abec 11s and factory Area 51s. In fact, I now have to replace her board because she always wants to ride my Atom drop deck. Another benefit of this board, is how well it carves. Ive adjusted the trucks to be a little looser and I feel like Im carving through fresh powder on a snowboard. Further, because of the cutouts, youll never experience wheel bind. Really, this is way to go. Finally, its beautiful. Thats not exactly what a dude wants to have his board known for, but this thing is seriously good lookin. The grip tape has a subtle logo cut out, and the underside is just rad! Honestly, theres absolutely nothing I would change. Stop looking and add this to your cart. You wont regret it. BTW - I was not compensated for this review. Im tired of the incomplete, or less than helpful reviews.

Its great

My 10 yr old picked it out and loves it! He was brand new to long boarding and caught in pretty quickly. Thumbs up!!

Nicely built longboard nice quality bearings and trucks well worth the money
